it's valentine's day again.

what do you say to someone

to tell them everything you feel

when they were the reason behind

your words for years?

 

how do you say i love you

and happy birthday

and please don't leave me

and you mean everything to me

and you are still the reason behind my words

without it sounding trite or desperate?

 

it's been four years and i still don't know.

but i love you, please don't leave me.

you mean everything to me.

happy birthday.
